To Replace Memory Modules

Solution

CAP PROBLEM OVERVIEW: How to Remove and Memory Modules

WHAT SKILLS DOES THE ENGINEER NEED?
ESD Awareness and basic hardware competence

Task Complexity: 0

Time Estimate: 90 minutes

5. WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE
RESOLUTION ACTIVITY?

o Power off the system and remove the cover
o Locate the DIMM connector in which you will remove and install a memory module. If your system has a dual-CPU configuration, it will have two banks of DIMMs. Bank 0 is the bank closest to CPU 0 and Bank 1 is the bank closest to CPU 1.
o Remove a DIMM by pressing down on the ejector bars at both ends of the memory module’s socket

To Install a DIMM

o Ensure that the DIMM socket ejectors are open (rotated outward) to allow the new module to be inserted.
o Align the DIMM's edge connector with the alignment key and insert the memory module into the connector.
o Using both thumbs, press the DIMM straight down into the DIMM slot until both ejector levers click, locking the DIMM in the DIMM slot. The DIMMs must be inserted evenly, straight down along the DIMM slot until locked into place. The DIMM is seated when you hear a click and the DIMM ejector levers are in the vertical position.
o Check the routing of all cables for obstructions, and then reinstall the cover.
Note: The manufacturer and capacity of both modules in the same memory bank (Banks 1-4) must be identical.


7. WHAT ACTION DOES THE CUSTOMER NEED TO TAKE TO RETURN THE SYSTEM
TO AN OPERATIONAL STATE?
Power on the system
